I am very sorry to hear about Jimmy’s passing. I didn’t know him that well but at times he would give me a call to update me on family happenings. He was a very friendly, nice man. His mom Betty, was a first cousin of my mom, Edna MacNeil LeBlanc. Sorry again, Carmella LeBlanc Veres.

Our sincere condolences to Jimmy's passing. He was a master of conversations and each one was on a different topic. And that impish grin that followed right after delivering his opinion, a great memory. We enjoyed them all. Rest in peace Jimmy cause you were a pillar of your community and you'll be missed.
